[Eril-l] suspected phishing of ProQuest password

[Wallis, Lisa]

Hi, all.

I've reported this to ProQuest, and they're looking into it, but I wanted
to mention a suspicious email I received yesterday at our eResources admin
address. Just an FYI -- don't click if you got it, too! Note the password
reset link goes to a force.com URL.

The subject line was "ProQuest Portal User Password Change"
